Cole Palmer is not included in the Chelsea squad for Sunday afternoon's match at Crystal Palace.

The 23‑year‑old trained over the past two days, but the fixture is thought to have come just a day too soon for him to recover fully from a thigh injury.

Chelsea remain confident he will return in time for Wednesday's Champions League trip to Napoli.
